Check out my card details below!

First I created my card base by die cutting the Grid Cover die twice from 80# Neenah.  I added some Stick-It double-sided adhesive to one of the pieces before die cutting it to make adhering the two layers together easier.  Next I adhered the die cut to my top folding card base.

I die cut the beautiful Craft-A-Flower: Sunburst Azalea flower layers from white card stock, and some pink card stock from the Cherry Blossom Gradient Cardstock set.  Following the included layering guide, I adhered the layers together.  I did use a few Copic markers on the stamen pieces so they would stand out a bit more.  Then I die cut the leaves from some Green Meadows Gradient Cardstock and used some green Copics to add shading.

I stamped the sentiment from the Birthday Builder stamp set in black ink and trimmed them into strips.  I added foam tape to the back of the sentiments and two of the flowers.  After deciding on my arrangement, I adhered the flowers and sentiment and added glue to the leaves to adhere.

I decided I wanted a bit of sparkle (which I wish showed in the photos) and swiped a clear glitter pen on the white layers of the flowers.

Thank you so much for stopping by!  Be sure to leave a comment here for more chances to win an awesome prize!
